Definitions
- the present subject matter relates, in general, to medical devices and, in particular, to a fluid delivery device for multiple medical procedures.
- biopsy involves extraction of tissue samples from body tissues to diagnose various health conditions, such as liver diseases, peptic ulcers, kidney diseases, and to identify malignant or benign tumors in the body tissues.
- biopsy of internal organs carries a risk of perforating internal blood vessels during operation, thereby causing some amount of internal haemorrhaging.
- the volume of tissue extracted during the biopsy is typically small and the probability of perforating a major vessel to cause uncontrolled hemorrhaging resulting in significant morbidity or mortality is also very small; but in certain cases it may lead to uncontrolled internal hemorrhaging.
- the benefit of obtaining an accurate diagnosis from biopsied tissue generally outweighs the risk of post-biopsy internal hemorrhaging. This is especially true for biopsies done under visual or radiographic guidance.
- the risk of internal hemorrhaging is high enough to discourage wide-spread adoption of such medical procedures, despite their high diagnostic value. For example, percutaneous biopsy procedures of the liver and kidneys may cause internal hemorrhage, which can quickly lead to fatal results if left uncontrolled.
- the present subject matter relates to a fluid delivery device for delivering one or more fluids to a target site.
- the fluid delivery device comprises a 5 housing and a shaft disposed inside the housing to form at least one fluid chamber therebetween for receiving the one or more fluids.
- the fluid delivery device further includes a plunger coupled to a first end of the housing. Additionally, the plunger may be coupled to the shaft and the plunger may be adapted to move inside the housing to deliver the one or more fluids from the fluid chamber to the target site.
- FIG. la and Fig. lb illustrate a device for delivering fluids, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- FIG. 2a and Fig. 2b illustrate a magnified view of various components of the device, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- FIG. 3 a and Fig. 3b illustrate cross-section views of the device in an un-deployed state and a deployed state, respectively, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- FIG. 4a, Fig. 4b, Fig. 4c, and Fig. 4d illustrate a schematic representation of a needle biopsy procedure using the device, in accordance with an embodiment of the present 5 subject matter.
- Fig. 5 illustrates a method for delivering one or more fluids to a target site, according to an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- the present subject matter relates to a fluid delivery device used for medical procedures, such as needle biopsy and laparoscopy.
- the device is used to provide one or more fluids to a target site, such as a body tissue, which is to be examined. Additionally, in parallel to delivery of the fluids, the fluid delivery device may be used to extract tissue samples for further medical procedures.
- a separate procedure of providing a hemostatic agent, at the target site, after the biopsy may be performed.
- a minimum of a two-step protocol is to be followed. In other words, a first procedure is performed to extract a tissue sample and thereafter a second procedure is perform to provide the hemostatic fluid.
- a percutaneous needle biopsy procedure a patient may have to remain perfectly still and simultaneously hold his breath for the entire duration of the initial needle biopsy procedure as well as the subsequent delivery of the hemostatic agent.
- the patient is generally required to hold the breath for a span of 10-20 seconds, depending on the biopsy procedure followed, to avoid motion-induced laceration and aggravated hemorrhaging of internal organs following the insertion of a biopsy needle and devices for delivery of the haemostatic agent.
- the patient is subjected to multiple samplings if the tissue sample is inadequate, or due to variability in sample quality, thereby not only causing discomfort to the patient but also increasing the chances of internal hemorrhage.
- a device to facilitate concurrent delivery of one or more fluids while performing a medical procedure is described herein.
- a device may be used for a variety of medical applications, for example, biopsy, laparoscopy, and delivery of fluids having multiple components, where these components are to be mixed at the target site.
- the device includes a plunger provided at a first end of a housing and at least one cannula provided at a second end of the housing.
- a shaft is disposed in the housing such that at least one fluid chamber is formed between an inner surface of the housing and the outer surface of the shaft.
- the fluid chamber is adapted to receive one or more fluids.
- multiple compartments may be formed between the inner surface of the housing and the outer surface of the shaft. Further, each compartment may function as a fluid chamber and receive one type of fluid. Further, in an implementation, the plunger, the shaft, and the cannula may be coupled such that they are in tandem or adjacent to each other. Further, in example, the plunger, the shaft, and the cannula may be coupled such that they are co-axial.
- the plunger, the shaft, and the cannula may be coupled such that a motion of the plunger inside the housing is translated into a corresponding motion of the cannula.
- a forward motion of the plunger inside the housing translates into forward motion of the shaft and simultaneously, pressure on the fluids enclosed in the fluid chambers is built, thereby pushing the fluids to the cannula.
- the cannula may deliver the fluid to the target site.
- the fluid may be delivered to the target site prior to tissue collection, while collecting the sample, or after collecting the sample.
- the shaft and the cannula remain inside the target site, such as a tissue, for the entire duration of the fluid delivery, a positive pressure is built up inside the tissue cavity. After the shaft is retracted, the tissue may collapse around the opening of the tissue cavity and the positive pressure may be maintained. Thus, as soon as the tissue is cut, the hemostatic agent is immediately delivered into a capillary bed of the tissue. As a result, instead of blood oozing out from the vascular organ, the hemostatic agent enters capillaries and thus aids hemostasis in local environment.
- the volume of fluid delivered may be in excess of the volume of the sample retracted during the procedure. As a result, even if fluid loss occurs after fluid delivery, an adequate amount of the fluid may still be retained inside the tissue cavity due to the positive pressure. Thus, in case of biopsy, since the positive pressure is maintained, a requisite amount of the hemostatic agent may be delivered, thereby aiding in hemostatic action.
- the forward motion of the plunger in the housing not only provides for collection of sample but also provides for concurrent delivery of fluids to the target site during a medical procedure like biopsy, a separate process for delivering the fluids, such as hemostatic agents, may not be required.
- the patients may hold the breath for shorter durations, thereby reducing the discomfort caused to the patients during such medical procedures and also minimizing the chances of internal injuries. Further, the concurrent hemostasis along with the medical procedure minimizes the chances of internal hemorrhage, thereby encouraging the use of percutaneous procedures.

- the shaft 110 may have a diameter narrower than the central lumen and may be disposed inside the central lumen to form a fluid chamber 1 15 between an inner surface of the housing 105 and an outer surface of the shaft 110. Further, the shaft 110 may be disposed inside the cavity to form a fluid cavity, which functions as a fluid chamber 1 15.
- the shaft 1 10 and the housing 105 may be cylindrical in shape and the shaft 110 may be disposed inside the housing 105 to form a circumferential cavity, which functions as the fluid chamber 115.
- the fluid chamber 115 is adapted to receive the fluids to be delivered to a. target site, such as a liver tissue.

- the plunger 120 may be adapted to move inside the housing 105 and an outer diameter of the plunger 120 and an internal diameter of the housing 105 may be substantially same. Since the plunger 120 may be integrally connected to the shaft 110, translation of the plunger 120 results in a corresponding translation of the shaft 110.
- the plunger 120 may include a first sealing unit 137, such as an O-ring, provided at a housing-plunger end, i.e., the end of the plunger 120 that connects to the housing 105.

- the housing 105 may have a variable cross-section along the length of housing 105.
- the housing 105 may have a circular cross- section and varying diameter.
- the cross-section may become narrower from the first end 125 to a second end 140.
- the first sealing unit 137 fits tightly inside the constricting cross- section, thereby providing efficient sealing and preventing backflow of the hemostatic agent.
- the housing 105 may have a constant cross-section.
- At the second end 140 of the housing 105 at least one cannula 145 may be provided, the cannula 145 being adapted to be inserted inside the target site.
- the cross-section ⁇ i)f the cannula 145 may constrict from an end coupled to the housing 105, i.e., the housing-ca'nnula end to a fluid delivery end, i.e., the end from where the fluid may be delivered to the target site.

- the varying cross section provides for coupling of the cannula 145 with the housing 105 and at the same time facilitates entry of the cannula 145 in the target site.
- the cannula 145 may be made of a softer material than that of the housing 105.
- the cannula 145 may be made of a material, such as Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) thick film or silicone, in order to prevent injury to a tissue.
- LDPE Low Density Polyethylene
- the cannula 145 may also be made of a harder material or metals, such as stainless steel.
- the cannula 145 may be fastened to the second end 140 to ensure that the cannula 145 remains integral with the housing 105 throughout the medical procedure.
- the cannula 145 may be fastened using the fastening element 150.
- the fastening element 150 may be a component that is press-fit into a second locator flange 135-2 and the component takes the shape of the recess therein.
- the fastening element 150 may be a screw and nut arrangement, rivet(s), or snap-fit part(s).
- the fastening element 150 may also be fastened by a permanent or temporary adhesive.
- a permanent fastening method such as ultrasound welding, may be used to fasten the fastening element, for example, in case where the entire assembly is disposable. Further, in case the cannula 145 is made of metal, the cannula may be welded.
- the fastening element 150 may fit into the second locator flange 135-2 provided on the housing 105.
- the second locator flange 135-2 abuts against skin of a patient and provide for easily locating the cannula 145 with respect to the skin of the patient, during the medical procedure.
- the housing 105 may also include a third locator flange 135-3.
- the first, second, and third locator flanges 135-1, 135-2, and 135-3 may be collectively referred to as flanges 135.
- the flanges 135 may be provided to secure the device 100 to a corresponding medical unit, such as a biopsy device. Additionally, the corresponding medical device may be manually operated or may be automated.
- the plunger 120, and the housing 105 may be coaxial with each other, as illustrated in Fig 3a and Fig. 3b.
- the cannula 145 may have diameter substantially similar to the second end 140 of the housing 105.
- the diameter of the cannula 145 may constrict from the housing- cannula end to a fluid delivery end, i.e., the end from where the fluid may be delivered to the target site.
- the varying diameter provides for coupling of the cannula 145 with the housing 105 and at the same time facilitates entry of the cannula 145 in the target site.
- the cannula .145 may be coupled to the housing 105 to form a cavity 147 between an outer surface of the cannula 145 and the inner surface of the housing 105.

- the device 100 may further include a translation mechanism to translate a forward motion of the plunger 120 into the forward motion of the cannula 145.
- the translation mechanism may include a coupling between the cannula 145 and the shaft 110.
- the translation mechanism may be an independent mechanism of translation that coordinates forward motion of the cannula 145 with that of the plunger 120.
- an independent translation mechanism may be a co-axial hollow tube encompassing the housing 105 and acting as a secondary plunger attached to the fastening element 150.
- the cannula 145 may be static and connected to a fixed or static surface, such as a front surface of a fastening element 150, other than the shaft 1 10. Further, while the cannula 145 may be static, the secondary component 155 may be free to move. In said implementation, the cannula 145 may be long enough to reach a secondary component 155, which collects the sample. Additionally, the length of the cannula 145 may be such that the cannula 145 delivers fluid deep inside tissue, i.e. at the end of secondary component 155 without the need for any translation. In other words, the cannula 145 may extend along the length of the secondary components 145.
- the length of the cannula 145 may be adjustable as different lengths may be required for reaching various organs.
- the length of the cannula 145 may be selected based on an ultrasound measurement of a distance from the skin to the target organ, say, liver capsule. For example, if the distance from the skin to the liver capsule is 25 mm, then the length of the cannula 145 may be set to 25mm plus 5-7mm extra, since the cannula 145 has to pierce through the liver capsule to deliver the fluids and to collect the sample. The length may be adjusted prior to insertion by loosening the fastening element 150.
- the cannula 145 may moved in or out of the fluid chamber 1 15 based on the length to be set and fastening element 150 may be refastened accordingly.
- the length of the cannula 145 may be adjusted such that the cannula 145 protrudes into the tissue.
- length may be pre-selected based on the organ to be pierced, i.e., the fluid delivery device 100 may be manufactured with organ specific variations.
- the fluid may be delivered to the target site while a sample is being collected or immediately after the sample is collected.
- the cannula 145 may be adapted to receive a secondary component 155, such as a needle.
- the secondary component 155 may be pushed forward by the plunger 120 via the shaft 1 10.
- the secondary component 155 may be used to collect tissue sample, or insert and anchor the device 100 into the tissue for fluid delivery.
- the secondary component 155 may be coupled to the cannula 145 to form chamber (not shown in the figures) therebetween to deliver the fluid to the target site.
- the secondary component 155 pierces into the target site to collect tissue sample
- the fluid may be ejected from the cavity to the target site.
- the fluid may also be ejected prior or after the tissue collection.
- the cannula 145 may also directly deliver the fluid to the target site, for instance, in case of a natural body cavity, where the tissue may not be required to be pierced as much as in usual cases of biopsy.
- the cannula 145 may be such that the secondary component 155 is completely encased in it prior to the forward motion of the plunger 120, i.e., the cannula 145 can shield the secondary component 155 during entry, say, into a natural body cavity where initial piercing is not necessary.
- the varying cross-section of the cannula 145 may itself provide adequate tissue displacement to allow insertion of the cannula 145 into the tissue without the use of the secondary component 155 at all.
- At least one second sealing unit may be provided.
- the second sealing unit may be provided between the second end 140 of the housing 105 and the cannula- housing end of the cannula 145. Further, the second sealing unit may be similar to the first sealing unit 137. Owing to the sealing unit, a unidirectional outlet for the fluid is provided, thereby facilitating localized delivery of the fluid close to a cutting edge of the secondary component 155. Thus, the fluid from the device 100 is delivered to the target site during the medical procedure or immediately after the medical procedure.
- the device 100 may include a port (not shown in figures) through which a monitor may be connected for internal imaging.
- a monitor may be connected for internal imaging.
- the fluids may have to be provided with an additional component to initiate their pro-coagulation functionality in vivo.
- the fluids such as some biological hemostatic agents which may be polymerized or cross-linked, may need an additional component.
- the hemostatic agent i.e., a first fluid
- the hemostatic agent i.e., a first fluid
- an initiator i.e., a second fluid
- each of the agents may require different time windows for activation.
- the first agent may activate immediately on contact, but may provide temporary stabilization.
- a second agent may require a longer window of time for complete activation, and may persist for a longer duration.
- the two agents or fluids are to be stored separately in two independent reservoirs while allowing for a mechanism to deliver them to an in vivo location simultaneously, during or immediately following the action of extracting a sample from the target site.
- the device 100 includes a housing 205 divided into two compartments 210-1 and 210-2 by internal splines 215-1 and 215-2, collectively, referred to as the internal splines 215.
- the internal splines 215 may be provided along a length of the housing.

- the housing 205 may be adapted to receive a plunger
- the body of the plunger 225 includes a plurality of grooves 230 to cooperate with the internal splines 215.
- the movement of the plunger 225 inside the housing 205 is constrained by the plunger flange 130, sealing the first end 125 and the two fluid chambers 210 of the housing 105.
- the groove 230 acts as longitudinal seal, thereby effectively bifurcating the fluid cavity into two smaller independent fluid chambers 210.
- Each of the fluid chambers 210 may hold different fluids or a pre-defined combination of the agent and its initiator.
- the fluid constrained in the two fluid chambers 210 may be expelled through second end of the housing 205 towards the cavity 147 formed between the cannula 145 and the housing 205.
- the two fluids may mix inside the cavity 147, and a combination of the fluids may be delivered out of the cannula 145, similar to the embodiment discussed with reference to fig. la and fig. lb described earlier.
- the mixing may be sufficient to activate both the fluids to perform the necessary action.
- a rapid ejection of both fluids may create a turbulent flow at the end of the cannula 145. Further, this flow may have spiral eddies that promote mixing within the tight constraints of the cannula 145 and the tissue cavity.
- one or more cannulas 145 may be provided to facilitate ejection of multiple fluids.
- one or more compartments 210 may be connected to an independent cannula 145.
- one cannula 145 may be concentric or coaxial with other. W
- the splines 215 may be aligned diametrically opposite to each other to divide the fluid cavity into two equal compartments, or to say two fluid chambers 210. Alternately, to have unequal compartments, the splines 215 may also be aligned at an angle, for example, 45°; or the splines 215 may be vertically aligned but off-set from a central axis. Further, the plunger 225 may also be divided into multiple sub plungers, for instance, the plunger 225 may be bifurcated, to slide independently in each fluid chamber 210.
- Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3b illustrate cross-sectional views of the device 100 in an un- deployed position and a deployed state, according to an embodiment of the present matter. Further, Fig. 4a, Fig. 4b, Fig. 4c, and Fig. 4d illustrate a schematic representation of a needle biopsy procedure using the device 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- the device 100 may be prefilled with the fluid to be delivered, say at the time of manufacturing the device 100. Alternately, the device 100 may receive the fluid at the time of performing the medical procedure.
- Fig. 3 a, Fig. 3b and Fig. 4a-Fig. 4d have been explained in considerable detail with respect to biopsy of a tissue using the device 100 for delivering a hemostatic agent; the functioning of the device 100 for other medical procedures will be apparent to one skilled in the art.
- a target site 405 such as a liver capsule, may be identified.
- the device 100 may be inserted inside the body of the patient such that the device 100 abuts against the skin of the patient using the second locator flange 135- 2, as illustrated in Fig. 4a.
- the cannula 145 having the secondary component 155 can be pushed inside the body, by way of the plunger 120, to reach the target site 405 as illustrated in Fig. 4b.
- the plunger 120 may be moved closer to the first locator flange 135-1.
- the plunger 120 may be moved forward and the secondary component 155 is pushed inside the target site 405 to collect tissue sample. Further, in case of a biopsy procedure, the associated medical device may be used to provide aspiration to suck in a sample from the target site. With forward motion and continued aspiration the sample may get accumulated inside the secondary component 155. Further, as soon as the forward motion is complete, the aspiration may be stopped and the plunger 120 may be rotated to give a rotational motion to the secondary component 155 to separate the tissue from organ. Subsequently, while the secondary component 155 is removed from the body of patient, then again aspiration may be provided to suck out the accumulated tissue from the secondary component 155 to transfer it to a sample container.
- the forward motion of the plunger 120 inside the housing 105 pushes the shaft 1 10 to push hemostatic agent 410 inside the fluid chamber 115 to the target site via the cavity 147 as illustrated in Fig. 4c.
- the cannula 145 terminates close to a cutting edge of the secondary component 155, it ensures localized delivery of the hemostatic agent 410 close to the site of potential hemorrhaging.
- the length of the stroke of the plunger 120 inside the housing 205 may determine a volume of the hemostatic agent 410 to be delivered at the target site 405. Additionally, a speed at which the plunger 120 translates linearly inside the housing 105 affects the flow rate of fluid delivery.
- the plunger 120 provide for controlling the flow and the volume of the hemostatic agent 410 in coordination with the overall dimensions and design of the fluid chamber 1 15. Therefore, fluid flow may be controlled independent of the action of the shaft 110, i.e., collection of the tissue sample.
- the shaft 110 may be retracted by way of a backward motion of the plunger 120 as illustrated in Fig. 4d.
- the secondary component 155 may be retracted.
- Fig. 5 illustrates a method 500 to deliver one or more fluids into a target site, according to an embodiment of the present subject matter.
- the fluids are delivered using the device 100.
- the order in which the method 500 is described is not intended to be construed as a limitation, and individual steps may be deleted from the method without departing from the spirit and scope of the subject matter described herein.
- a cannula such as the cannula 145 is assembled with a housing.
- the cannula may further include a secondary component, such as a needle. Further, the cannula and the secondary component may be sterilized prior to being assembled with the housing. The cannula may be locked with the housing using a fastening element.
- the one or more fluids are filled in one or more fluid chambers provided inside the housing.
- the fluid chamber may be prefilled with fluids.
- a manufacturer may manufacture the device already prefilled with the fluids.
- a plunger may be inserted in the housing to seal the fluid chambers.
- the plunger may also include a first sealing unit to provide seal between the fluid chambers and the housing.
- the housing, the cannula and the plunger may be loaded into a medical device, such as a biopsy device, to perform the corresponding medical action.
- a medical device such as a biopsy device
- the cannula and the secondary components may be inserted inside a body to reach a target site.
- a sample from the target site is collected by the secondary component.
- a shaft accommodated inside the housing may be rotated or moved linearly to collect the sample.
- the plunger is moved forward inside the housing to deliver the fluids into the target site.
- the plunger is retracted, when a requisite volume of the fluids is delivered and the sample is collected.
- the extraction of the sample creates a cavity in the target site and, as the plunger is retracted, a positive pressure builds up in the cavity. Further, the fluids are retained in the cavity to perform the corresponding action, for example, hemostasis in case of biopsy.
